Club Sandberg (part 2)

Hail to the ‘48’. The baddest mofo’ bass on the planet. (Slightly bias viewpoint)

@FacStudio i thought you loved me.....seems younlike any guy with a bit of facial hair.

@cmebass yep thumbs up for your YouTube vids, and also you have been very helpful in FB messenger to me.

I will get a 48 at some point, and I already look badass, so who knows what will happen!
In the meantime, i’ll Just have to put up with these....

@cmebass did I forget to mention Haüssel pick ups as well......

It’s just the absolute beans, and when you pump it through a Two Notes, Cali76 compressor, Form Factor Bi1000 and a Barefaced Super Twin, it gives me fizzy Knickers.
Don’t get me started on dirt pedals.....

I don't know if I write to the write place for that but I have a problem with my California TT 2014 with passive/active preamp and Delano Pickups.

Since yesterday, there's no sound coming out of it when I plug it. I've changed the battery, checked the wiring (nothing seems unsoldered), change amp, nothing.

There's a little bit of sound in active mode but not much.

Has someone ever had a problem similar to that ?

Also I would like to know if there's a list of parts/model # I could get if I have to replace some parts.

Jack socket OK? I had an issue on a Fender before with a similar set of symptoms and it was a bent jack socket pin.

Can I suggest emailing Sandberg too. They always get back to you usually the same day in my experience.
 
Make sure there's nothing shorting out between any of the pots. When I bought my (ex) TT4 I plugged it in and had no sound . I traced the fault to pot contacts touching each other where they'd twisted on the control plate. Or maybe shorting on the barrel jack? Is the fault still there when the control plate is taken out of the cavity and plugged in?

Maybe totally uncalled for but Sandberg has an extra “click” to save the battery. That way your battery life is saved. They did that so you don’t have to take the plug all the way out when you put it away in between sets for example. It happened to me a few times even when I knew that Sandberg basses have this feature.
